WisuiKGTON, July 17. Sknatb.
Mr. Dawes, from the committee on
Indian affairs, submitted the report on
the message of the President vetoing the
bill granting the right of way through
the reservations in northern Montana,
recommending the passage of the bill
notwithstanding the President's objec
tions. He stated that the report was
unanimous and that be would tako
an early occasion to call it up for action.
He did not think that it would take
much time in debate.
Mr. Miller called up the oleomarga
rine bill, the House bill defining
butter and regulating the manufacture,
sale, importation and exportation : of
oleomargarine. (Reported by the com
mittee onagrioul ture without' amend
ment.) The bill was read in full. The ques
tion whether the bill should be now
considered was decided in the affirma
tive, yeas 28, nays 13, as follows :
Yeas Allison, Blair, Cockrell,
Conger, Cullom, Daws, Edmunds,
Evarts, Frye, Gorman, Hale, Harrison,
Hawley, Hoar, Kenna, ' Logan,

Nays. Beck, Berry, Brown, Coke,
Gray, Harris, Jones (Ark.),5iMaxey,

and Wilson (Maryland) 13.
Mr. Beck moved to refer the bill to
the committee on finance.
It was, Jbe said, a tax bill beyond all
controversy, and as such should, under
the rules of the benatej be considered
by the committee on finance. It not
only dealt with internal taxation, but it
changed the tariff laws. There was no
report from the - committee on agrieul
propriation for the armament of fortifi
cations from $500,000 to $100,000,
Mr. Peed, of Maine, suggested that
there should be a discussion over a
proposition to vote a want of confidence
in another department of the govern
ment. Pending the vote or demand for the
previous question, the hour of 5 o'clock
having arrived, the House took a recess
until 8 o'clock, the evening session to
be for the consideration of business re
ported from the committee on printing.

There was a goodly number , of specta

Samuel F. Mordecai, E ij , chairman of
the county committee. The convention
cleoted all democratic newspaper men
temporary secretaries A Olds, of
the News and OusiKVait, acted in that
capacity. Mr. Strcnach called l.r nom

were Messrs. Spier Whituker, A. D
Jones, H C Olive, W C Stronach, M T.
Leach. The names of Messrs Leach,
Olive, Whitaker and Stronach were
withdrawn and Mr. Jones was elected.
He was greeted with applause as he took
the platform and made a few neat re
marks, saying that ho did not believe a
convention should be. made a Sunday
school or a prayer mcotintr. and that
there might be fan, but that whejn busi
ness began, it should be business!
Messrs. Josephus Daniels and F. A
Olds were made permanent secre

for. delegates, and these were handed
in. All the townships were found to

vigorous and well-timed speech. An

Naw Haviw, Conn., July i7. Judge
Stoddard's charge to the jury in the
conspiracy case against .benjamin T.
Gidden, David T. Macnamara, Thos. F.
Mnlcahy and L Frederick Busohe,
members of a typograpical union,
charged with conspiracy to injure the
business of the Courier publishing com
pany, occupied one hour in its delivery.
The charge was generally thought to be
rather favorable to the defendants than
otherwise. The judge explained to the
jury each of the sixj counts in detail,
and cited many authorities having a
bearing on the case. The jury retired
and were out one hour. When they
returned a verdict was announced, find
ing McNamara, Glidden and Mulcahy
guilty on each of the six counts in the
indictment. Busche was i acquitted.
Counsel for the defense will file a bill
of exceptions and .move that the sen
tence be deferred. It is probable that
the defense will seek a further adjudi
cation in the supreme court.

Gen. Boulanger, minister of war, and

marks of the Baron in the Senate Thurs
day relative to the expulsion of the Duke
d'Aumale, was fought at 9 o'clock this
morning. The weapons were pistols.
The place of meeting was in the forest
near Meudon, five, miles west of Paris.
When the command to fire was given
Baron de Lareinty shot at Gen. Bou
langer. The latter coolly awaited the
result of the shot without firing himself.
Finding himself untouched ! by hit op
ponent's bullet, Gen. Boulanger raised
his own pistol and fired ud into the air.
The combatants then left the field. Gen.
Boulanger, returning to Paris, went
straight to his office at the war depart
ment. A large crowd had assembled
to learn the result of the duel and gave
Gen. Boalanger an ovation when he ap
peared.
